My destiny is to go to work in a world that is collapsing

Hua Yi shook Xia's hand, gave a comforting look in return, and then smiled at Theresa.

"Is the legendary Inari god Hitamaru? Don't you think it's too small? Smaller than you."

Hearing this, Theresa showed a slightly complicated look.

She tugged at the corner of her clothes and lowered her head, kicking the stones back and forth, and fell into silence for a moment.

Why was her statement so full of flaws? Almost every detail was revealed. It seems obvious, but the other party still hasn't stopped this topic?

Why would the other party joke with me so easily even though he knew the legend from five hundred years ago?

Why - didn't he tell Hitamamaru and the disaster to the world ? How about connecting the demon fox?

In fact, even Teresa herself knew that the theory of gods was illusory. In contrast, the existence of the demon fox that brought disaster to the world was confirmed to a certain extent.

When she first met Hitamaru, Teresa's first thought was that the other party was a demon fox that had broken away from the seal and brought disaster to the world.

However, Hitamamaru had never hurt Theresa and had always acted harmlessly.

Hitamamaru's daily words and deeds His behavior is pure and lovely, and he is unconcerned with the world.

Even though he cannot leave the shrine too far for some inexplicable reason, he still takes things easy and stays in the shrine for a long time without getting tired. All of this is unlike anything else. It's a disguise.

Teresa doesn't feel the need to disguise Hitamamaru at all. If she is really the demon fox that brings trouble to the world, she can just threaten herself with force. Why bother to put on unnecessary disguises for an insignificant person like herself.

Teresa Lisa spent a lot of time and energy to rebuild the Yae Shrine, and Hitamaru who appeared in the shrine was as if she was her brainchild.

Theresa did not want others to yell at Hitamamaru. Fight, shout and kill

"you……"

"Fried tofu ~ Fried tofu ~ Teresa, have you bought back my limited edition fried tofu?"

Before Theresa, who looked complicated, spoke to Hua Yi, Hiyamaru hummed in a pleasant accent and asked questions around Theresa.

Although Huayi's presence made Hiyamaru feel special and inexplicably kind. Feeling bad, but——I’m hungry.

So hungry that my mouth watered just by recalling the taste of fried tofu.

Hitamamaru decided to satisfy his appetite first, and then explore the intimacy in his heart.

"……Sorry, I just got lost and have never been able to go down the mountain. If I hadn't met these two travelers going up the mountain, I might still be wandering around halfway up the mountain. Teresa was full of apologies.

Hitamamaru's figure, which was originally flying flexibly in mid-air, visibly stiffened. His expression, which was full of excitement just now because he was about to eat fried tofu, suddenly turned gray.

Then The pitiful changes are enough to make anyone who pays attention feel pity

"No, it's okay... I just hope you come back safely."

Obviously, Hitamaru was already in this state, but instead he comforted Theresa.

On the side, Kasumi, who had been secretly wary of Hitamaru who was suspected of being the evil fox that brought trouble to the world, suddenly had doubts about his own judgment.

Could the legendary disaster really be such a kind and cute little guy?

Speaking of which, fried tofu? Isn't that another thing that the ferryman bought at the market before?

"Here you go, fried tofu."

Just when Xia looked over, Hua Yi took out a well-packaged piece of fried tofu from his pocket. It was obviously a piece of fried tofu that had just been purchased and had not been opened.

Hiyamaru, who seemed frustrated just a moment ago, saw it clearly. After Hua Yi took the thing in his hand, his face suddenly glowed with a smile that he couldn't hide. He was about to take it, but hesitated midway.

"Can you really give it to me? Is this a limited edition fried tofu? Super delicious!"

"Well, just think of it as a meeting gift. It's getting late now and it's dark. Can we stay at the shrine for one night?"

Hua Yi said this not only to make Hiyamaru take the fried tofu with peace of mind, but also to see the daily lifestyle of Theresa and Hiyamaru.

Hiyamaru was obviously moved. But she did not agree on her own, but looked at Teresa.

It seems that the person who holds the decision-making power in this Yae Shrine is Teresa, the self-proclaimed assistant shrine maiden.

"Yes, there are rooms available at the shrine. Theresa answered in the affirmative without any pause.

Whether it was Hua Yi and Xia who helped her when she was lost before, or the kindness they showed to Hitamamaru now, it was enough for Theresa to warmly entertain her..

Not to mention that there is still a sense of intimacy in my heart.

"Hey, I'm not welcome then."

Seeing this, Hiyamaru took the fried tofu and happily held the packaging bag, which was even bigger than her Q version, in her arms and flew it to Hua Yi's shoulder with a very natural movement. She sat down and started to enjoy the fried tofu.

Teresa opened her mouth, wanting to remind Hidamamaru that her behavior at this moment was a little too intimate.

However, she saw that Hua Yi did not show any sign of rejection, but instead smiled. The joy on Hitamaru's face seemed to be a little stronger than when he bought her the same type of fried tofu in the past. Teresa hesitated briefly, but did not ruin the happy atmosphere.

"There is no food reserve in the shrine, otherwise I wouldn't have wanted to go down the mountain just now... I can only try to find some wild fruits in the forest to entertain you."

Theresa's words made Kasumi raise her eyebrows.

This girl who would cry because she got lost, and who clearly showed her fear of the dark on the way back to the shrine from the mountainside, was actually willing to overcome her heart in order to entertain herself and the ferryman. Are you too timid to run into the dark forest again to look for wild fruits?

Even if there are no lights on the mountain road you walked along, it can at least be considered a wide field of vision. The moonlight can provide some visibility. If you reach the depths of the dense forest, , it was really extremely dark where you couldn't see your fingers.

Xia didn't intend to trouble Theresa.

However, she didn't speak.

Because Xia knew that the ferryman would give a better answer, even if it was rejection. I can say something more perfect than myself

"It's okay, I have some snacks here. If you are hungry, feel free to take them."

Daifuku, senbei, dried meat, the same snacks are constantly brought out by Hua Yi, including sweet and salty flavors, which makes people wonder how big his pocket capacity is. Not to mention

Hiyokuwan and Theresa, even Xia, whose expression changed very cryptically, showed obvious astonishment.

Some of these things were bought by her and the ferryman at the market, and some of them were bought by Xia without even knowing about the ferry. When did people carry it with them?
